What's better for the Skins tonight -- A Cowboys or Giants win?

saden1 · 10-25-2010, 07:54 PM

Of course whether the Cowboys suck or not doesn't matter when we play each other. I wouldn't count on them folding when we go to Dallas late in the season.

The Redskins control their own destiny and we're looking pretty good in terms of conference and divisional wins. The way the NFC is shaping up, three teams from the NFC East could realistically make the playoffs.

So yeah, I'm hoping for a Dallas loss tonight to actually put more pressure on the Skins by chasing the Giants and keeping something in front of them, instead of looking down at the Cowboys who probably won't make it even if they win tonight.

0-0 tie, or cowboys win...unfortunately for us the giants d-line is gonna take a massive dump on romo while he is trying to hide behind that joke Dallas calls their o-line.

I'd just like to watch the two teams beat the crap out of each other for 60min.

Only one of the ESPN MNF brodcasters picked the Giants. The media is still riding the jock of the cowboys hard.

A rash of injuries.... I dont really care much at all. Just to see a decent football game I guess. May just watch a movie!

Well they are up by 10 after two minutes into the game.

I want to see the cowboys lose. It would be much easier to just plan how to beat two other teams instead of everyone still being within firing distance to the last week.

skinsguy · 10-25-2010, 09:24 PM

The Giants need to lose to force a three way tie. A Giants win makes them 5-2 in the conference (one of the best records in the conference), sole possession of the NFC East at this point, and the Redskins looking at a tough schedule after the bye week. The Giants' schedule in the coming weeks isn't nearly as bad as ours. Dallas is not going to sniff the NFC East title this year, so them winning tonight is not going to hurt us at all.

As much as I hate to say it, you have to pull for the Cowboys tonight. It is the best thing for the Redskins while our team is struggling.

If the Giants receivers caught the ball it would be 7-0 Giants. It's 10-7 now....games aren't decided in the 1st two minutes.

Well Romo may have just dislocated his shoulder or broke his collarbone....

Put a fork on the cowboys, they are done for the year, Romo out (broken clavicle).

Not anymore.

There's a whole lot of football left, but the New York Giants are looking downright dominant. Unless things really start to click for us offensively, I wouldn't expect much of a battle between us and them. We have a long way to go before we'd be competitive with them.

mooby · 10-25-2010, 10:50 PM

Schefter is saying broken collarbone, which normally means out 8-10 weeks. Other reports are saying broken clavicle, which could mean 4-6 weeks. Which is it?

Btw how bad are the Cowboys that they had a 20-7 lead and when it went into halftime it's 24-20 Giants? Bad enough that I doubt they win this game. Giants gonna be 5-2, Cowboys gonna be 1-5 and Romo will be out for at least a month. Ouch.

Broken clavicle was the very early initial report. I'll bet Schefter did a little more digging and he probably got it right.
